The Medway Towns were transformed into Del Boy’s Peckham playground as lookalikes descended for an Only Fools and Horses photoshoot.

Photographer Gino Cinganelli brought together a cast of familiar faces including Rodney, Uncle Albert, Boycie and Trigger.

The tower blocks of Byrant Street, Chatham, became Nelson Mandela House, while Rochester’s Nags Head became... the Nags Head.

Lookalikes Bob Broad (Del Boy) and Philip Hoyles (Rodney) posed with the three-wheeled Reliant Robin.

They soon transformed to recreate the famous scene where the brothers inadvertently call a halt to a mugging, donning their Batman and Robin costumes.

Gino said: “I carried out one of my most challenging shoots yet.

“I wanted to create some scenes based on the TV show Only Fools and Horses.

“With an amazing cast, some great locations including the Bryant Street towers in Chatham, The Nags Head pub in Rochester High Street and also our studio in Rochester.”

Mr Ciganelli has staged many photoshoots, including ones featuring characters from Star Wars, The Wizard of Oz and Doctor Who.
